Raster Layer Doubt {Scanned}

[Siki Zoltan]

Hi,

Some idea

Add STATUS DEFAULT or STATUS ON, I am not sure what is the default.
Is it a GeoTif? Do you have georeference for your raster file?
Try gdalinfo to get the answer. 
If it's not a GeoTif than you must have an india.tfw in the same 
directory.
What about projection? Are your shapes in the same projection?
You should check the coordinates of the georeference.
Have you read Raster-Howto on Mapserver web page?

Bye,
Zoltan
